I do tons of triangle on-the-ground through passes. Like sometimes even from defence without aiming them, because I know Suarez will half the time run on to them and go through on goal. It helps when I am down and need goals fast. Is that wrong?

Hey one reason I sometimes do those no look passes is because I can only see a small section of the field. I've tried zooming out and still can only see a small portion. Can anyone recommend to me a camera setting where I can see where everyone is and play more intelligently, without it being a weird point of view with strange directions needed.

Bear in mind I play with the arrow keys and not with the toggle stick. So I only have 8 directions I can make players go so weird angle views are not my friend.

I asked my ex that got me into this and he said I am a moron for not using toggle stick and this is why girls don't play video games. If anyone can give me more constructive advice that that I would appreciate it. I am stuck in D4 and I hate toggle stick and not being able to see where my strikers are.

Also, when they are attacking, I can control one guy and chase the man with the ball, but all my other defenders and midfielders seem lethargic, don't track back, don't close down, don't cover their guys, and don't follow runs. Anything I can do to make them play smarter when I am not controlling them?

I bought a premium gold pack the other day on the PS3 for 7,500 coins not expecting too much and I got Wayne Rooney with an overall rating 89. Just checked some of the current bids on the auction and he's going for well over 150,000 coins so my question is do I sell or do I keep him in my squad? I've was within a point of winning the division 1 online seasons so maybe he is the player that will make a big difference up front for me? I haven't used him yet and I have no idea if he's any good, plus the thought of playing with a United player terrifies me. Much rather have Suarez!!

I opened that premium gold pack at around 12:30am so it seemed some of the above posters were right about the best time to open packs although it maybe that I just got extremely lucky! So far opening premium gold packs has got me the likes of Cardozo, Oscar, Abate, Schurlle, Gibbs so pretty good players but without a shadow of doubt, getting Rooney is my biggest coup. Wondering what to do with him now though?

I like the excitement or perhaps more often disappointment of opening the premium gold packs and seeing what you end up with but at 7,500 coins a go it is a bit steep. If i sell Rooney, I can no doubt buy further shiny gold players to add to my squad or even have enough to buy around 20 premium gold packs. Maybe I'll get lucky again!!!

I started off playing the default 4-4-2 formation and I've stuck with it. It's not too bad but I'd like to experiment with other formations to see if i have any further success with them. Any ideas on your preferred formations?

Only alternative is buying MS points and then getting them that way (I'm assuming you have an Xbox btw) but it just doesn't seem worth it with the utter pish you get most of the time. I must admit that I've been very lucky with my packs recently, I followed someone's advice on here to open a pack just after midnight because new players/rares are apparently released around then, lo and behold out pop Falcao and Kaka in the same pack.

Finally won online season division 1 title with Wayne Rooney in my side...he's incredible...averages 1 goal a game for me. Played 43 scored 43.

Funnily enough I've put him up for auction because I would like to invest in some other strikers, but he will improve any Ultimate Team squad, believe me.

Thus, there is a Wayne Rooney with a preferred formation of 4-2-3-1 and comes with a 99 contract for sale right now. The auction ends just before 11:30pm tonight so get bidding guys and girls, he won't go for cheap...yesterday a 7 contract Rooney sold for 261,000 coins whilst an In Form Rooney also went for 550,000 coins so the demand for him is huge.

I got relegated from Division 1. I was getting rinsed by some guy with an awful team i dont know how he was doing it. And then other games the guy would go 1 nil up and then just keep the ball for the rest of the 80 minutes until he won and there was literally not a thing i could do to get the ball back.
